Everything You Need to Know About Dermaplaning Treatment

February 5, 2024

With over 3.8 billion term views on TikTok and millions of posts on Instagram, Dermaplaning is one of the most popular treatments among beauty enthusiasts. People love the treatment because of its ability to reduce the appearance of various skin imperfections by revealing newer, smoother skin.

 

At Rejuvn8 Aesthetics, Dermaplaning is a popular treatment because of the improved skin care results we can provide our patients. This blog discusses everything you should know before your dermaplaning treatment in New Hartford.

What is Dermaplaning?


Dermaplaning is a cosmetic treatment that removes dead skin cells and facial hair (peach fuzz), leaving your skin smoother and brighter. The procedure is non-invasive and performed with a special scalpel-like tool.

 

Even though many find it very similar to shaving, dermaplaning differs in that it delivers exfoliation and removes peach fuzz as well as debris embedded on the surface of your skin.

What happens during Dermaplaning?

A dermaplaning appointment lasts between 30 and 60 minutes. Using a laser-cut scalpel blade, we gently scrape away the top skin layer during the procedure. This might sound intense, but the exfoliation is superficial, and the treatment is not painful.

 

What are the benefits of Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning brightens dull complexion and smooths out uneven skin texture, minimizing the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and acne scars. This, in combination with facial hair removal, results in a smoother base for makeup. All in all, dermaplaning leaves your skin firmer, brighter, and healthier.

Is Dermaplaning safe for all skin types?

The risks of experiencing side effects from dermaplaning are minimal and when you book your Dermaplaning treatment at Rejuvn8, you’re working with aesthetic experts who know how to perform this treatment with safety in mind.. However, individuals with sensitive skin or active acne might experience irritation, breakouts, or redness after the treatment. In addition, people with breaks in the skin or those with infections should avoid dermaplaning.

 

How often should you have this treatment?

Dermaplaning is a deeply exfoliating treatment, so it is best not to do it more than once a month. Individuals with sensitive skin are advised to limit dermaplaning treatments once every four months. However, the ideal frequency depends on the individual. At Rejuvn8 we will provide an assessment and consultation and advise you on the best treatment plan to reach your aesthetic goals.


What to do before and after Dermaplaning?

We recommend avoiding active ingredients, acids, or retinol for five days before the procedure. You should also avoid hair removal or other skin treatments 7-14 days before dermaplaning.

 

Post-procedure, it is very important to use SPF products daily and hydrate your skin. You should also avoid peeling products and protect yourself from heat for three days. Lastly, don’t use any makeup the day after so that your skin can breathe.
